I'm kind of interested in buddhistic practices. But why would you prefer telling your story to people individually if you can reach everyone at once by typing it out once in here? I think you need a little more bait to lure people into messaging you on IG

Yeah man, you're not alone in this! Now go get 'it'! :)

@Realitnt I'm happy to help :) I'm fairly confident that you're not lost in case you're otherwise healthy and fit. You indicated you kept trying PMO fairly regularly in the past, so I'm afraid your 300 days are tainted by those relapses and aren't as high-quality as a strict abstainer's would...

@Realitnt it might take up to two years, depending on how young you were when you started, how much real sex you had early on (0 for most guys including myself...) and the frequency with which you used porn. Just look up Gary Wilson's videos or yourbrainonporn.org for a compilation of a lot of...

Tough man, unfortunately I'm in the same boat (but slowly improving)! If you're otherwise healthy and still young than most likely it's PIED and a long period of abstinence should clear most of your symptoms. But as said before, it may take a long time. Real sex will further train your brain to...

Jeez that's rough man, all the best in processing all this. I think you made the right decision, even though it feels bad now. I hope she knows this is also hard on you? If not, I think you should think twice about messaging her and telling her about it, I fear doing that could only give false...

I think @Greenday1011 has a point, she's in no way obliged to help her partner conquer his addiction, especially since they aren't married yet (good thing she found out before tying the knot!). But I also think that her partner is not necessarily evil for keeping his partner in the dark about...

Hi Patrick/Mark :)

I'm sorry to hear his porn addiction is throwing such a wrench in your relationship. Let me chime in as I've also become estranged from otherwise good relationships because of my porn use and consequent low libido and sociability. You should realize that porn use alters one's desire for social...

I have been flatlining for months, basically since I seriously started NoFap again ~6 months ago. I found your post because I was also slightly concerned, but Crimson's message reminded me that I probably don't have to be. Basically all of my teenage 'sexual priming' was through a computer...

Good job on coming here. Now keeping looking forwards and keep reminding yourself why you came!

Flatlining forever

Hey @DuckofDeath, do you mean one of these: https://www.marcypro.com/home-gyms?

Also 'feeling great' is not necessarily the definition of a successful life, I'd say. But this idea does seem very pervasive in our culture.
